I get most of my science news from a list of links on this website http://scitechdaily.com/. They are not just nanotech news, but if most of the nanotech news is covered on at least a few of them.

I find a remarkable overlap with Chubtoad though I can add:

New York Times
The Economist
Forbes
Financial Times
Asian Times
Tehran Times
(I got a thing about the times :)) )
Los Angeles Times
The London Times
The Guardian
Sunday Times
Time.com

OK and I look at

PNAC
AEI
Carnegie Institute
Hudson Institute
CATO Institute
DoD web site
DoS web site
CIA fact site
FBI.gov
NIAC
INRA
Center for Strategic and International Studies
GlobalSecurity.org
Policy Review Council


University Web sites for current research and papers
Haaretz
The Jerusalem Post
Iran Expert
al Jazeera
Atlantic Monthly
Washington Post
Counter Punch
Alternet
Pacifica News
PRI
NPR
Various talking heads from O'reilly to Tim Russet and the McLaughlin Group

I run Google and Yahoo search bars and have tuned personal news pages at MSN, Yahoo, etc to have Reuters, AP , US News & World Reports, Village Voice, Agent France Presse. La Monde, Mexican and Spanish press as well as UK and Irish press all delivered in synopsized links along with direct access to NASA, Arab News Network and so on. I have way too much news but I access contrasting opinion on every controversial issue and determine validity.

I routinely scan Izvestia, Pravda, the Chinese, African and Latin American press as well because I always try to seek the best report closest to a source and I read two languages and this helps keep me a little fluent and exposed to other languages like French, and Portuguese.

I really want the upload when it becomes available for Russian, Chinese (both Mandarin and Cantonese) German, Arabic, Hebrew, Japanese and a few more esoteric ones as well like Nahuatl and Farsi.

And you folks wonder why some of us want a direct neural patch for interfacing the web?

I really want to get away from the desk more and do this stuff while caning or fishing, running and real world chores. Multitasking is still something I can handle better than my computer can.

BTW, you asked about this in relation only to nanotech but the overlap is too broad to ignore and I have found cross referenced stories in virtually ALL of the above mentioned sites that relate to nanotech possibilities, risks, and investment opportunites.

Wow, and I thought I was a news-junky. :)

Usually I use news-portals linking to the real news sites.

I almost forgot I also monitor Betterhumans, the Center for Responsible Nanotechnology, I am a member of various forum groups like the Yahoo Nanogirl Site, check out Foresight regularly and at various places in the web like Tribe.net, Orkut, Yahoo, and Google.

I am almost always rewarded with useful data and new links to current ideas, products, manufacturers and new sources of information.

When things get slow I start seeding memes.
